Lol...right on. Actually, it's very common to find "drag bars" on a Sportster. And the title "drag bar" came from a part of a Navy ship boat anchor! So, you're kind of accurate with that statement!

 

Bwahahaha! Had no idea where "drag bar" came from!

Mom was right, I can learn from the internet!

 

Yeah, I'm tired of doing the same thing over & over. Didn't you get a frame to start a project?

 

not yet
still looking for a donor or a cheap one

 

They're out there. I just got one off of Ebay WITH a clean title for 600. Notarized & ready to title.

 

yeh, I know. I'm thinking though it may be easier and cheaper just to find a whole bike and go from there.
depends on which comes my way first that I can afford at that moment I spose

 

I agree. There's a butt-load of "stuff" you'd use from a donor bike that would nickle & dime you to death starting from scratch.

You're in Ohio...this place is here in Indiana but rather close if you're looking for a deal. I've bought a few from there. They'll have a salvage title but they do all of the paperwork for you. Pretty cool place.

interesting site. The sportys seem to be a bit high though.

 

Pretty painful for me to look at the damaged bikes, and envision the wrecks.
